Weirdo

Weirdo is a black-and-white, manga-style visual novel set at Di Yingling High School and adapted from the manga series Parallel (诡闻斋). You guide Wang Zhe, an ambitious student with ordinary looks and a troubled family background, as he pursues a place among the school’s talented students and works on his research project. Your choices shape his relationships, the story’s branches and its endings as he faces decisions about love, his career and competition at school.

Story and characters

Wang Zhe earned a place at the elite school through his excellent grades. The story follows his efforts to stand out, with more than 20 main characters who have distinct personalities and backstories. Players of the previous two games will encounter some familiar faces, since the stories share the same school.

The game includes four major chapters, with story developments and challenges, and more than 100,000 words of script. A playthrough takes about 4–8 hours.

Choices and endings

More than 100 choices affect how the story develops, creating branches and consequences. You can pursue multiple girls, each with a different story route and ending. The game has four main endings and two hidden endings.

Manga presentation

The story is told extensively through manga panels rather than relying mainly on narration and descriptive text. It includes more than 400 manga panels and 12 BGM tracks, including six new compositions.
